Confidentiality/OIA processes for applications
We consulted on draft new guidance on confidentiality and Official Information Act processes for our assessment of applications for clearance and authorisation under the Commerce Act 1986.
Submissions closed on 30 July. We received submissions from interested parties and are now publishing non-confidential versions of those submissions.
We are considering the feedback received through the consultation process. Subject to that feedback, we will finalise and publish guidance on confidentiality/OIA processes for applications.
The new confidentiality/OIA process will take effect in respect of all applications registered one month after we publish the final guidance.
